Unless they can die of embarrassment, no. 'Cause that's about survival, homes.
(FWIW, Carrier Shells and Caddis Fly larvae do a similar thing...)

I was responding not to the "feeling shame" part of the quote, but rather the "uncomfortable being nude" bit. Goldomark gave me an "or" statement and I took him up on it. I don't imagine hermit crabs are very comfortable walking around without their shell homes, their "clothes" equivalents.
Hermit crabs for the win!

Yes. I wasn't always comfortable being naked, but at some point I basically decided I didn't give a hoot what people thought. If someone wanted to paint me in my birthday suit, I'm not going to be embarrassed about it.
I did have a large mole/birthmark removed a few years ago, and while I thought I accepted it (been there since birth, after all, and it wasn't anywhere publicly visible), I was surprised at how much less self-conscious I feel with it gone.

You haven't shown they do it to avoid a feeling of shame.I was responding not to the "feeling shame" part of the quote, but rather the "uncomfortable being nude" bit.

its a self-evident truth.

When I was a kid I was mortified by the idea. Then I grew up and realised it didn't really matter. Wouldn't do it on purpose; nudist colonies are usually creepy haunts. If confronted with nudity by others? I go to life drawing occasionally, and that's fine. I guess, then, nothing innately disturbing to me, but given certain social contexts I'd definitely feel uncomfortable yep.

Like why toilet paper migrats to the sewer?
And I don't have to. Had you said, "I am not aware of any other animal that feels shame AND is uncomfortable being nude," then I would have had to provide an animal that fulfilled both requirements. But you didn't say "and," you said "or." I've shown that hermit crabs fulfill your second requirement: they're uncomfortable being nude. So, now you're aware of one animal that feels shame OR is uncomfortable being nude: namely, the hermit crab.
It's no fair changing the requirements to your challenge after you've made them.
